We usually lose to you at the KC. Silly. I wanted one more go in the Golf Stand, anyway.

I guess we first have to assume that Hudge has not been forced into this decision by not being able to offer Hull the minimum number of away allocated tickets now the CP capacity has been reduced, and is merely doing this for typical begging reasons.
If the former, then Hull should be looking to take revenue from all tickets sold over the new capacity (8500?), cut with the SMC and with no benefit to Rovers. If the latter, from all tickets over the old capacity (10500ish?).
You, as the home team would take possession of the best stand with it's corporate facilities for your use [iand [/ithe cushioned seats and one end. I.e., you'd have West, West Upper and North. That way, you'd maximise the 'away ' support and cause the minimum of logistical difficulties (tickets have to be sold through the KC ticket office so Hull fans would merely buy their 'own' 'home' seats anyway resulting in a mixed stand) and, of course, make policing issues easier.
Guess we also have to factor in how much the Egyptian would charge. No, no, silly worm, he's a Rovers benefactor [iand[/i has made clear to the people of this city his dedication to sports philanthropy in Hull, so he should do it free or at cost for his mucker.

Pick the bones out of that one!
Do you want Batley's slope as well? Firstly, is there a "minimum number" of away tickets for a super league fixture? I know it exists in Challenge Cup ties, not so sure for league fixtures. As for revenue, I don't see why Hull FC should make any money whatsoever for an away fixture, apart from 10% of tickets sold like the normal revenue stream you'd expect for an away game. As for seating allocation, as long as I get a touchline view comparable with my home view then what you are given is really of no interest to me. Dressing rooms, well I understand they have laminate flooring in the home dressing room so you can keep it.

Good bait that.
I particularly like the way you get to keep all the money over and above how many tickets we could sell at home, well, apart from your generous offer of five hundred.

On those terms? Of course not, but you knew that.

| This really should be a non-issue for fans, surely? The KC has plenty of room to accommodate everyone who is likely to attend in seats with a perfect view regardless of which stand folk end up in. There should even be plenty of flexibility for those that prefer either an end-on or side view.
As far as the financials are concerned, as long as it doesn't actually [icost[/i FC any money then where's the problem? We wouldn't have made anything from the fixture at CP anyway.

Get out.
Far too early for a sensible post on this thread, we have to do the little dance first.

A day out down Anlaby Road? I'm dribbling at the thought of such an amazing event.
50/50 in ticket numbers or cash?

Good excuse for a e-dust up though.
Belfastification is my mot du jour. We should have end of terrace murals and paint the kerbs and stuff.

Don't be ridiculous, this is the [iKC[/i! There's that knobbly rubber stuff on the dressing room floors that looks so good when O'Meley lies on it, and polished floorboards all the way to the tunnel. (You lot have to pay to walk on [ithose[/i, though.)

| The sensible option would be:
Rover – West and North
Hull FC – East and south
I don’t think the West upper will be needed

Too true. Doesn't and won't stop the bickering like.
If (say) we/you get a good deal from the SMC, then we could really blitz this game with subsidised ticket prices for all. Of course our season ticket holders are likely to kick up a fuss, but the benefit of a full stadium would be more beneficial to both clubs. Still, 24 days to go now and nothing is yet in print ... if this is going to be successful I'd say both clubs need to get this sorted soon. The who gets what and all that jazz is overshadowing the benefits to both clubs/fans.
